Hey guys! How have you been? Is it hot where you are?! Because I think I am about to literally melt. To start with, in case you were wondering, my goals totally flopped this month! I have been doing a lot better at drinking water and I’ve almost entirely cut out soda which is a […]

July 2018 Goals
Alright y’all. It’s a new month and a new opportunity to refocus on my goals! Later this week I’ll be continuing my “The Mother Runnin’ Truth” series and talking more about the mistakes I made setting goals for postpartum fitness…but for right now we can go with the short version: they aren’t happening.

Nine Months Postpartum
When I sat down and thought “Hey let’s write a nine months postpartum” post I immediately had two questions: How the heck is my little tiny baby nine months old already?! And how the heck am I so incredibly far from reaching the goals that pregnant me thought were so reasonable?! Remember my New Year’s […]

Summer has officially arrived in Texas and it came with a vengeance. Sometimes I find myself wondering if I was […]
Monday Miles – April 30, 2018
Well, my computer apparently ate my update from last week. Womp womp womp. I know I had promised an update on the “why” behind my return to running and all that jazz. What I meant to share last Tuesday was that I broke my runstreak and didn’t write the update because I got a dog! […]
Monday Miles – April 23, 2018
Oh my lanta. How have I not posted since January?! I pinky promise I am back on the wagon this time. Life has been all kinds of crazy and running took a back seat for quite some time. I’ll be posting a life update tomorrow but for today I want to focus on the fact […]
